关于下川遗址和丁村遗址群7701地点的时代、性质问题——与安志敏先生讨论

ON THE PROBLEMS OF THE DATES AND THE CULTURAL FEATURES OF THE XIACHUAN SITE AND LOC. 7701 OF THE DINGCUN SITE——Discuss with Dr. An Zhimin

山西下川遗址和丁村遗址群7701地点均发现旧石器时代晚期的典型细石器。前者也于下川富益河圪梁第二级阶地上部;后者位于汾河第二级阶地底部。地质时代为晚更新世晚期;7701地点比下川稍早。 本文根据地貌、地层和所含的文化遗物,结合碳-14测据,与安志敏先生在《中国晚期旧石器的碳-14断代和问题》中对下川、丁村提出的异议,进行了讨论,认为两遗址的时代与性质依然可信无疑。

The typical microlithic remains were unearthed from the Xiachuan site and Loc. 7701 of the Dingcun site. The Xiachuan site is located on the tope layer of the second terrace of Fuyihegeliang, Xiachuan basin. Loc. 7701 is loeated at the bottom of the third terrace of the Fenhe river. Their geological ages belong to the late period of the Late Pleistocene. The age of Loc. 7701 is somewhat earlier than that of Xiachuan. According to the geomonphology, the strategraphy and the cultural remains, toge-ther with radiocarbon dates, the author discusses with Dr. An Zhimin about the dif- ferent opinion on the dates in the article 'Carbon-14 dating and its problems of the late paleolithic in China', and confirms that there is no big contradiction between the 14C dates and the cultural features of both sites.
